The silver platter, a significant and valuable item, symbolizes the wealth and dedication of the tribe. The weight of one hundred and thirty shekels, using the sanctuary shekel, indicates a standardized measure used in the tabernacle, ensuring fairness and consistency. This offering reflects the importance of giving one's best to God, a principle seen throughout Scripture, such as in the offerings of Abel (<a href="/genesis/4-4.htm">Genesis 4:4</a>) and the widow's mite (<a href="/mark/12-41.htm">Mark 12:41-44</a>).and one silver bowl weighing seventy shekels The silver bowl, like the platter, was a valuable item, further emphasizing the tribe's commitment and reverence. The specific weight of seventy shekels again highlights the use of the sanctuary shekel, a unit of measure that was likely heavier than the common shekel, underscoring the substantial nature of the offering. This act of giving parallels the New Testament teaching of sacrificial giving, as seen in <a href="/2_corinthians/9-7.htm">2 Corinthians 9:7</a>, where believers are encouraged to give generously and cheerfully.both according to the sanctuary shekel The sanctuary shekel was a standard of weight used in the tabernacle, ensuring that all offerings were measured equally. This standardization reflects God's desire for order and fairness in worship, as seen in <a href="/leviticus/19-36.htm">Leviticus 19:36</a>, where just balances and weights are commanded. The use of the sanctuary shekel also points to the centrality of the tabernacle in Israel's worship and community life, foreshadowing the role of Christ as the center of Christian worship and life (<a href="/john/4-23.htm">John 4:23-24</a>).and filled with fine flour mixed with oil for a grain offering The grain offering, consisting of fine flour mixed with oil, was a common offering in the Levitical system, symbolizing dedication and thanksgiving to God. The use of fine flour indicates the quality and purity expected in offerings, pointing to the purity required in worship and service to God. The oil, often a symbol of the Holy Spirit, suggests the anointing and presence of God in the offering. This offering prefigures Christ, the Bread of Life (<a href="/john/6-35.htm">John 6:35</a>), who offered Himself as the perfect sacrifice, fulfilling the requirements of the law and providing spiritual sustenance for believers.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <a href="/topical/a/ahiezer.htm">Ahiezer</a> - The leader of the tribe of Dan, who presented the offering on the tenth day. 2. <a href="/topical/t/tribe_of_dan.htm">Tribe of Dan</a> - One of the twelve tribes of Israel, known for its role in the settlement of the Promised Land. 3. <a href="/topical/t/tabernacle.htm">Tabernacle</a> - The portable dwelling place for the divine presence, where offerings were made. 4. <a href="/topical/s/sanctuary_shekel.htm">Sanctuary Shekel</a> - A standard unit of weight used in the tabernacle for offerings. 5. <a href="/topical/g/grain_offering.htm">Grain Offering</a> - A type of offering made to God, symbolizing dedication and thanksgiving.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><a href="/topical/t/the_importance_of_order_and_obedience.htm">The Importance of Order and Obedience</a> The structured presentation of offerings by each tribe underscores the importance of order and obedience in worship.
